LOUISE Somers, a member of the AIRC North East Region committee, which doubled as the Festival committee, had a very rewarding day at Jordanstown on her Irish Draught gelding Indian Mist. She and her 16-year-old Cappa Cochise bay won the RC Elementary class, the higher-graded dressage turn-out prize and, in the Horse Mad Store handy hunter arena, they topped judge Karen Gibney’s scores in the RC100 to RC120 class and then claimed the section’s best turned-out award.

While the winners of some special recognition rosettes at the Festival were immediately identifiable, others could only be decided at the close of play and were announced on Tuesday.
